Putting week 1 in perspective
I'm sure you guys have moved on, but here's a reminder about what week 1 really means.
The link goes to a recap of week 1 from 2003: Patriots vs Bills. Tom Brady was picked 4 times and the Pats were crushed 31-0.

This link is for the second game that New England played against Buffalo this year. The result? 31-0 vengeance for the Pats. Now it's hard to compare Baltimore to Buffalo in any way other than they both begin with the letter B, but in this case, the Pats looked to be in a malaise at the beginning of the season only to bring it together at the end and beat their divisional opponent.
I think this Steelers team is getting old...but they have more pressure experience than just any other team in the league and it's a long season. I guarantee that they're not happy with their performance because there is no reason to be. I look forward to seeing the Ravens come to the Steelers' house week 9.
One more recap link to conclude this fanshot, this was the last game the patriots played that year:

This is a minor gripe about the critisms of the evil emperor, Dan Snyder. The most common point brought up is the number of coaches he goes through and how often he fires them. The point about coaches is valid, the point about him firing them is not. What should be looked at is how lacking he is at chosing quality people to surround himself with and his many other personnel decisions.
Let's look at his Coach history:

Operation: Blackout

You want change? You want Dan Snyder to can Cerrato? You want Dan Snyder to stay out of the football operations of this team? You want Dan Snyder to show an ounce of customer service, that he understands Redskins fans and isn't simply infatuated with their wallets?
Hit him where it hurts...his wallet. Stop buying tickets. Stop renewing your tickets. Stop buying Redskins gear. Total team boycott. The goal? Blackout the Redskins.
Make Danny realize what he's doing isn't productive and that we're sick and tired of his antics and lack of humanity. We're not going to take it anymore.
No suspension for Kunitz
First 2 paragraphs sums it up...plus Ovie doesn't like it.
